In most cases, blood cleanup services are needed as a result of a death, violent crime or other traumatic event. When these types of events happen, it is probable that investigative procedures are followed and emergency medical personnel are present. Investigations, while necessary, can also cause the spread of dangerous biohazards as blood can be redistributed to other areas outside of the initial trauma scene. The same is true for emergency personnel. When emergency responders have left the scene, they rarely worry about the elements left at a scene. The primary focus is saving lives so often you’ll find medical waste and other elements scattered around the scene where blood is present. If the blood contains infectious diseases o other harmful elements, they can be carried to other areas by footsteps, waste and even liquids and other solutions used that may carry blood away from the scene.

If you experience a blood or biohazard scene, do not attempt to clean the area yourself. The risks are too great and you can potentially endanger yourself and others. Contact us immediately for our blood cleanup services. We offer insurance communication assistance and 24 hour emergency dispatch to our clients.

For the most part Palm Harbor, FL is a quiet community just outside of many metropolitan areas. Crime doesn’t seem to be a concern to most of the people who live in this area, but what happens when crimes do occur and who handles the aftermath cleanup of crime scenes? Bio Scene Clean Upprovides crime scene cleanup in Palm Harbor and surrounding cities.

Depending on the nature of the crime, most every scene contains some form of biohazard that needs professional biohazard cleanup. If the crime scene has a presence of blood, bodily fluids or other matter as a result of gunshots or other traumas you should never attempt to clean these areas. The potential risk for dangerous pathogens and other infectious diseases is not to be taken lightly. These biohazards, if not properly cleaned, can remain a health threat for weeks after the crime has occurred. Because of this, there is a high probability that horrific odors, stains, bugs and other pathogens can re-appear and still remain dangerous.

Bio Scene Clean Up is experienced in proper crime scene cleaning techniques using industrial equipment and chemicals to ensure your crime scene area is safe and free from biohazards. Contrary to what most people believe, police or emergency professionals do not cleanup biohazards from crime and trauma scenes. It is usually up to the person who owns the property or business and they are also responsible for the costs associated with the cleanup.

Some people will attempt to cleanup crime scenes themselves without realizing the health risks. Even something as simple as a tiny fingerprint dust particle containing an infectious pathogen can potentially compromise your health, if ingested. Our certified technicians work to contain all biohazards to the specific area and follow strict OSHA protocols to remove all traces of biohazards. In some circumstances, this means that anything in contact with the crime scene must be removed, even fixtures, walls, flooring or other materials.

Death, although a natural part of life, can be one of the most traumatic events in the life of a family member or loved one. Death can also be a potentially dangerous event for family members or loved ones because of the presence of biohazards. Bio Scene Clean Up provides death cleanup services in Sarasota, FL and surrounding cities.

After death occurs the breakdown of the human body happens rapidly. At almost every death scene cleanup we perform there is the presence of blood and other bodily fluids and matter that can contain biohazards that may be extremely harmful to anyone that may come in contact. Blood, after leaving the body, will begin to dry and flake. Flakes can become airborne and may be easily ingested but others. Because you may not know the entire health scenario of the deceased, you have to handle the death cleanup process as though it contained potentially fatal biohazards.

When a death is discovered, or after authorities and medical personnel have left, whomever owns the property is usually responsible for the cleanup. If you are untrained in biohazard handling and disposal, you put yourself and others at risk of contracting diseases or other microorganisms that can harm someone’s health.

Bio Scene Clean Up maintains all certifications and special equipment necessary to completely remediate a death scene and return the site to a safe and biohazard free area. We also maintain all of the required permits for proper handling and disposal of any materials or matter containing biohazards. Frequently people attempt to cleanup blood and other trauma scenes themselves not realizing that these biohazards and organisms can survive outside of the human body for a long period of time. Inadequate cleanup can cause horrific odors, the presence of bugs and other harmful bacteria to appear sometimes weeks after the trauma occurred.

If you do not hire a professional death scene cleanup company like Bio Scene Clean Up, it may be very difficult to have these areas restored to a safe environment in the future. Because many of the biohazards are not visible to the human eye, it is often necessary to remove any materials that were in direct relation to the trauma. This may mean walls, flooring and other structures affected. The cost of cleanup after an inadequate cleaning is tremendous and most often the total costs become the responsibility of the property owner or family member. Protect yourself and contact our office immediately for death scene cleanup assistance.

Through use of special equipment and industrial cleaning techniques, Bio Scene Cleanup can safely restore your biohazard or trauma scene to its original condition.

Our job is to access the site for these potentially harmful biohazards and remediate the area to a clean and sanitized environment.

We’ve written previously about the dangers associated with biohazards and inadequate cleanup methods. If you are not trained in biohazard cleanup and disposal you should not attempt to cleanup these areas yourself. Strict protocols have been set by State and Federal authorities that require specific cleanup guidelines be adhered to. If not, you may potentially sustain hefty fines which mainly result from improper disposal of the biohazard materials.

When a person’s heart stops beating the cells and tissues stop receiving oxygen. Brain cells are the first to die, usually within seven minutes after the heart stops (bone and skin cells can survive for several days). Blood begins to drain and pool in lower-lying portions of the body. This pooling causes blood leakage that requires professional death scene cleanup. As a body’s cells die, bacteria begins to break them down causing the appearance of the body to change dramatically and smell. Decomposing death cleanup requires biohazard remediation practices that should only be performed by professionally trained company.

Once the body is well into the decomposition process, insects are usually present. These insects not only feed on the decomposing body but are able to multiply in mass quantity. This is especially dangerous because these insects can carry contaminated biohazards to other areas and potentially other people. If you are unfamiliar with cleanup practices for a death scene you are putting yourself and others at risk for possible contamination. If skin and bone cells can live for several days after death, that means the bacterial and other potentially dangerous pathogens can live even longer.

Because of the location, it’s very common to receive calls for decomposition cleanup services in Orlando, FL. Many of the rural areas experience increased numbers of people dying at home who many not be found for some time after they’ve died. Discovering someone’s death is traumatic enough, but an untrained individual attempting to deal with the cleanup of a decomposing body is most often more than they can emotionally handle.
